“Frequently used (mistakenly) as a Saturn V translunar injection (re: "In the Shadow of the Moon") this onboard piece is actually from a Saturn IB mission, AS-202. It is shot from the interstage forward of the S-I stage, facing forward, to document the separation of the S-IVB. Since no footage exists of a trans-lunar injection (where would it be shot from?) this is our best view of what an in-flight firing of the S-IVB looks like.”
The above is from the first linked video. The frame appears to be taken from the 15/16-second mark. Gorgeous:
